Document Description
The City of Long Beach, acting by and through its Board of Harbor Commissioners is a responsible agency pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for real estate transactions and approval of track relocations on property jointly-owned with the Port of Los Angeles on the San Pedro Subdivision right-of-way as part of Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s (Metro) overall Southeast Gateway Line (formerly known as West Santa Branch Transit Corridor) to accommodate the aerial structure, and relocation of portions of the Union Pacific Railroad-operated freight tracks to accommodate for dual light rail tracks (Project). While freight tracks will be relocated, existing track sidings and spurs, as well as active freight service, will be maintained within the rail right-of-way and will not change the right-of-way. The Project will not impede or change the function of the freight tracks and freight sidings used by industrial uses adjacent to the right-of-way. Among the real estate transactions to be entered into include a joint revocable permit, which will be issued to Metro to excavate and sample various locations for environmental analysis and/or to perform certain work, including the relocation of freight tracks on the San Pedro Subdivision right-of-way jointly owned by the City of Long Beach and the City of Los Angeles.
